Englishman Tyrrell Hatton held off Daniel Hillier of New Zealand to win the Dubai Desert Classic by a stroke on Sunday, equaling Jon Rahm's record of five Rolex Series victories. Overnight leader Hillier birdied the last to put pressure on his playing partner but Hatton held his nerve to hole his par putt from seven feet and secure the win.

Holding off New Zealand's Daniel Hillier by one and Englishman Laurie Canter by two, Hatton, one of Europe’s Ryder Cup stars, despite his move to Jon Rahm’s Legion XVIII with LIV Golf, overcame a one-stroke deficit heading into round four.
